We are starting up new small groups for the fall in Sept. and we already have 85% participation with two more weeks to sign up... We are looking for 100% participation for our church family, because we know it will cause good things to happen to those who get involved... Our whole purpose for small groups is to meet new people, make friends, grow in our faith, and have a little fun... Our groups are successful when those simple things happen... we don't use our small groups to become an intimate space, but use it to be a social space. We don't expect that everyone in your group will become your closest, deepest friends... but you might meet someone in a group that you would like to develop a deeper friendship with... Again let me explain our Growth Groups are a place to meet new people that might become your friends, grow in your faith, and have fun... If you would like to know more about Faith City's Growth Groups, or sign up for one... go to faithcity.tv and click on the button Small Groups... it will take you to our catalog full of groups... Also while your on the website click on the button for youtube... we are starting to put some service videos up, so check it out... Continuing on Sunday our Smallville series... special guest don't miss... bring someone with you... See you then...

About My Life

I'm Karl Barancik, with my wife, best friend, and lover Kathi. I am a husband, father, grandpa, pastor, life coach, and lover of life. I have been a pastor of a progressive, non denominational church for over 25 years. I have made some good choices during my lifetime, such as... heaven over hell, blessing over curse, forgiveness over regrets, Mac over PC, Kathi over 3 billion women, debt free over indebted, downsizing over upscale, Starbucks over Tim Hortons (sorry Canada), fathering over absence, God's Word over any other... and it has proved to be the right ones so far... still choosing... how about you?
